Dear Lily:

Your mother twisting her foot and breaking her leg while trying to step over a windbreak reminds me how I badly twisted my own foot a year ago or longer by trying to stand up following being seated in a reclining chair- I lost my footing and that was enough to lead to my inability to take my daily walks for days!

I feel good reading how calm you feel at the countryside.

“I want to keep my mental stability and men seem like a threat to it”- so keep them away from you, just like you have done in the examples you gave. Your number one priority should be your mental stability. Protect it and cherish it.
